OFFERINGS
Each Sunday, between 6-8 U.K time we will hold our offerings.
Each offering supports us to meet, and to live within, the rubble and the heart-crack of our times. To Gather and Remember (Service For Earth), To emerge (Heart of Crisis), and to stand and unite (Standing As Earth).
Each offering aims to ground us together in the now, so we may feel the future arriving through us, so we may meet the energetics of our world, and to respond appropriately to them.

OFFERING 1 - SERVICE FOR EARTH
Service For Earth anchors and supports us to come together, in the rubble of our times, to meet the amnesia of our current western civilisation, in what has been forgotten, in what we believe needs to remembered and to light a candle, for the active creation of a civilisation, that is more deeply rooted as part of Earth, Humanity, and Cosmos.
1. Being with Earth
We'll work together to reconnect and remember ourselves as part of our world, as part of nature, and all the kingdoms, the minerals and the whales, the moss and jackdaws, supporting us to access ourselves as part of the greater life of our world, anima, thou, spirit.
2. Meeting what has been forgotten
We make space to meet the collective forces of our times, to meet our world that is landscaped by Ecological loss, political tension, uncertainty, in the shared common ground of living in and through these times together, and what we are forgetting and have forgotten in that.
3. Pathways towards remembering ourselves as a risen forest
Crucially, For Earth is a project that aims to Foster spaces where we actively lean into the possibility of standing more fully together for shift and change, to find Earth as our common ground.
We believe that in a world constantly riven by division, that we need spaces where we can actively ask and enquire how this is possible. At the heart of this, For Earth has the dream of humanity as a risen forest, the dream of us standing as oaks, sycamores together at this moment of time, for radical change.
What will we do?
Each 'Service For Earth' will be a mixture of community weaving, games and exercise that support community coherence through depth, fun, and play. There will poetry, music, working with group Harmonics, singing, space in and with nature, connective practices with body, soul, spirit, and active enquiry as to how we meet individually and together this moment of time.
OFFERING 2 - HEART OF CRISIS
Heart of Crisis asks us to go into the depths of being human in a world landscaped by crisis, collapse, riven by division, and polarity.
Heart of Crisis comes with the mythology that the various crises we are facing are part of a significant shift, and a stirring of the soul and of our humanity.
We stay with the multi-layered forces that are currently at play within our collective fields, to make space for the energies of these times to be met, experienced, and worked with together.
Within this we will work with:
Holding the polarities of our times, from the position of ‘all is well’ to we have no hope’, working with our own field of where we are carrying too much emotion, and where we are not able to access enough.
Collapsing tribalism - on multiple levels, in emerging communities, in existing world
Working with the collective heart, and the various pieces that are being stirred at this time, from politics, to economics, gender and our environment.
Working with our personal heart-crack that allows us access to the heart of humanity.
Making space for creation and possibility. From experience, the more we are willing to meet our world, and the forces that are currently at play, the more able we are to meet these times we are living through, to move with creation, to move out of paralysis and inaction.
OFFERING 4 - STANDING AS EARTH
Seperation and division are no longer a viable solution. We need to find pathways towards meeting beyond our tribalism, and to, as activists for change and shift, ask ourselves, where and how, we are being riven by certain forces that have been the anticidents of what we are now looking to change, and how we can meet, the elephants, discomforts, and difference between us, and still meet on common ground. Standing As Earth is a space to support us to stand, individually and collectively together for shift, change, R(E)volution. We will to support this in the following ways.
— The liberation of the freedom current
— The trunking, branching, rooting and raising internally of the tree of life.
— The liberation of artistic expression
— The hum of the group body
— The returning divinity of our essential humanity
— The prophecy of Shamballa
— The Dream of the Risen Forest
We will explore together these pieces, asking how we can stand, support one another to stand, and stand more fully together for radical shift and change. We will explore what prevents us from standing, what stops us from standing together, and unpack unity, diversity, activism and
OFFERING 3 - WINDOWS IN THE RUBBLE
Windows in the Rubble aims to look at key pieces of our civilisation’s story, to meet what has come before in order to support us to better choose our future. Here, we will actively gaze into the stories we have inherited, and into certain key events and acupuncture points to meet these together as a group somatic body, to support us to then create the new stories for our future. This is about the story of our future civilisation being able to be created in a way which is polyvagal, and neuro-emergent, but that is sourced in the greater unfolding story of our times.
